The above drawing shows a?

A

Spring compression grease cup.

27
Q

When lubrication open gears, you should consider?

A

Gear materials, Environment, Temperature.

28
Q

The type of lubrication for enclosed gears depends upon?

A

Load, Operating speed, Operating temperature.

29
Q

When the pressure between meshing gear teeth is too high, the oil film?

A

Will fail

30
Q

The oil bath bearing should not exceed the?

A

The mid point of the lowest rolling member.

31
Q

In the above diagram is the oil bath acceptable?

A

yes

32
Q

One advantage of using grease as a lubricant is?

A

It provides better start up protection after short periods of down time.

33
Q

The advantages of using oil as a lubricant are?

A

Lubricates well at high to very high speeds, Can be used as a heat exchange medium, Can be removed easily from the housing, All of the above.

34
Q

The main purpose of using cutting fluid during machining process is to?

A

Cool the work piece by reducing friction.

35
Q

Straight cutting oils may be classified as?

A

Active or in active.

36
Q

Oils that may be mixed with water and used as cutting solutions are called?

A

Emulsifiable

37
Q

Chemical oils that are soluble and contain rust inhibitors are generally used for?

A

Grinding

38
Q

When handling lubricants, it is always advisable to? IP

A

Avoid skin contact by wearing gloves an aprons etc, Avoid breathing mist or fumes, Wash hands and arms fully at the end of each shift, All of the above

39
Q

When doing lubrication preventative maintenance, the millwright should look for?

A

Low levels or lack or lubricant, Heat or smell of burn oil, Excessive noise in drive units, All of the above

40
Q

“Active” oils react with ?

A

Non ferrous metals

41
Q

Which of the following additives would be used to control the action of water in oil?

42
Q

The four main points to consider when selecting a lubricant is the clearance between moving parts, the operating temperatures, the weight on the moving parts and the?

A

The rubbing velocity

Q

As a general rule, when the RPM of a rotating part is increased, the viscosity of the oil used will?

A

Be decreased

46
Q

The general lubricant used when drilling cast iron is?
